We are incredibly proud to share that ACI Denmark has been awarded silver in the Diversity category 🥈at this years ACI World Congress.

This recognition reflects a dedicated and sustained effort to build a more inclusive and diverse community – with a strong focus on engaging and empowering the next generation.

On October 9th the European System of Central Banks reaffirmed commitment to updated FX Global Code.

Initially published in 2017, the FX Global Code outlines global principles of good practice in the foreign exchange market, promoting integrity, effective functioning and high ethical standards. The Global Foreign Exchange Committee has updated the Code twice, in July 2021 and December 2024, to keep it relevant and aligned with the evolving foreign exchange market, and will continue to set the standard for good market practice.

The European System of Central Banks (ESCB) welcomes the latest update of the FX Global Code since well-functioning financial markets benefit all market participants and are important to central banks as they enable the smooth transmission of monetary policy to the real economy, ultimately benefiting the public at large.

The Global Foreign Exchange Committee (GFXC or Committee) has completed its review of the FX Global Code (the Code). The December 2024 version of the Code, which will supersede the July 2021 version, updates its principles of good practice in the foreign exchange market in two key areas. Alongside the revised Code, the Committee will also publish enhanced Disclosure Cover Sheets (DCS) for Liquidity Providers and Platforms.

The GFXC has updated the Code following an extensive consultation process with local FX committees (LFXCs) worldwide and a broad range of Market Participants through a public Request for Feedback in October 2024. Updates have been made to five of the Code’s fifty-five principles to strengthen the Code’s guidance on FX Settlement Risk, as well as to increase transparency around certain types of FX transactions and the use of client-generated data on electronic trading platforms.

In addition, the DCS for Liquidity Providers and Platforms were also extended with the objective to enhance transparency and comparability across providers on the use of FX data. The GFXC encourages the uptake of the DCS, which are available on the GFXC website.

Over the last couple of years several ACI FMA National Associations have increased their focus toward supporting the younger ACI members, often referred to as the “Next Generation.”

ACI Danmark focus on all members, especially the Next Generation, as they are the future of both the Financial Markets and for ACI Danmark.

The National Associations in Switzerland, Denmark and the UK are all running programs for the Next Generation. There is a cross-border co-operation and sharing of knowledge among these three ACI countries for mutual benefits.

Together with Switzerland and UK we wish to share the current status, work conducted so far, and the experience gained on a global scale.

Please see our findings in short briefing for the national associations ACI – Next Generation.

We share ACI’s values; the importance of networking, and the exchange of knowledge on a wide range of topics.
